Had to go in since I love beer and the wife's name is Kelley. Wish they did flights of beer but 2 half pours did the trick. Daughter like the sour, I enjoyed the fresh hop ipa and tropical hazy ipa. Great experience and enjoyed snagging some branded items to take home. read more

I always enjoy coming to Kell's. It's a special treat to relax and partake in Irish food with a Guinness or as yummy cocktail. Kell's is pretty consistent and one of my go-to places for comfort food. It's usually pretty fast to get a seat and, though the service wasn't great this last time, it's usually pretty good. As a pescatarian, I normally gravitate toward the fish and chips (though I do with this location had the Irish nachos like the one on 2nd because those are amazing) and I enjoy a Kell's Old Fashioned. This time I went with a whiskey and ginger beer drink from their specials that I can't remember the name of. While it was good, I'll stick to my usual next time. It's a great place to get drinks with friends, have a relaxing night out, or if there's a game going they can put it up on the TVs so you can watch and sip a beer. I'll definitely be back and I recommend you check it out too! read more

I have been coming to Kells for years and it's always been a phenomenal bar with amazing food. However, I ordered the wedge salad today and it compelled me to redownload this app and give Kells a 5 star rating. Perfect portion size with fresh and delicious ingredients. Also must try the BBQ wings and the Kells Reuben. Insanely good food with impeccable service. You can tell the people who work here genuinely care about the business and it shows in the way they stop to chat with you and be friendly. Also a great spot pre or post Timbers match. Keep doing you Kells! read more

Kells Brewery - Special of the day: Wedge Salad - Breweries Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I came here to drink their beer. I DID. it was all good to OK.... nothing was mind blowing in the beer front but nothing was bad either. The service was great and fast... thank you! Environment was Celtic bar so lots of wood and a whiskey wall, which is nice. Overall it's a nice spot. When i return, I'll focus on whiskey drinks! read more

Solid Irish pub with your basic bar and bottles of hard alcohol. There was a Notre Dame football game being shown on the televisions. Great vibe and the staff was very attentive and friendly. read more

Good drinks, good vibes! Haven't tried their food but the bartenders are worth going for alone. Tina, Abbey and that random tall dude are so funny and give the best service. Would recommend! read more

Kells Brewery - Irish Stew. - Breweries Near Me - Portland, Oregon

We loved Kells! The building itself had all the makings that took you back in time and have that neighborhood vibe. The corned beef and cabbage was delectable! Also I highly recommend the bread pudding which is served piping hot with a scoop of ice cream on top. Was the perfect amount of sweet. read more

Best customer service in Portland! Stopped in for a bite to eat and a beer and was delighted with the whole place. This place has the aesthetic of a classic Irish pub, lots of outdoor seating and great food and great beer. I tried the fries and the sausage roll and both were delicious and perfect portion size. I also tried out the Kells Lager, which will bite you a little at first but it makes up for it later, and the Kells Red which was soooo good. The bartender was charming and efficient and the experience overall was great. Definitely worth a stop and definitely worth coming back! read more

It's been some time since I had been to an indoor dining establishment that has had live music. It feels like it's been years. Oh yeah.... It has :( It was a busy night on this Friday evening. Guitarist at the stage and a line at the bar. It took a few minutes to get sat as there wasn't a sign if we were suppose to wait or seat ourselves. When we were finally sat it took several more minutes to get a menu. This is where the 1 star was lost. Outside of that the food was great. My wife and I had a fish and chips and an corned beef stew and 2 beers. The food was the right amount of comfort. The meat was tender and the potatoes were solid. read more

Kells Brewery - Corned Beef and Cabbage - Breweries Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I've been here a few times but probably don't come here as often as I would like. I enjoy the atmosphere which is pretty chill. The service is friendly and super available. I love how cozy the place is and the great decor. Their beer is great. I'm one of those hop heads that has hopped himself almost into oblivion, and I was suspect I would find beer here that I would like. However, I regained my romance with the ESB and stout here. Their ESB is especially amazing. Best craft US one I've had! I didn't really like their fresh Hop one but had it anyway due to my fresh hop fanaticism. They generally have good food, though I've only had an appetizer and a soup. Both were tasty though! Worth checking out if you're in the area! read more

This is a very cool Irish Brewery and Pub. I came in here during happy hour and enjoyed a couple of lagers and some eats. I had the boneless whiskey wings for $5 and the Irish nachos at $5 as well if I remember correctly. The crisp lagers were only $4 a pop. The lager was quite refreshing on the warm evening I visited, and the boneless wings tasty. They were a little over sauced for my taste, but the whiskey sauce was very good. The white chicken meat inside was tender and the breading crunchy. The Irish nachos were not what I actually expected, being that they were house made potato chips rather than potato skins, but they were tasty. The chips were well made and seasoned. They had a good crispiness about them. They came topped with sour cream, black olives, chopped tomatoes, green onions, melted cheese, and red onions. The only thing missing from these chips were some chopped bacon! Where's was the bacon peeps? I recommend they put some on. Service was pretty standard. It was friendly and not rushed, but I did have to flag down the fellow to pay our bill which was no big issue. read more

The BoH knocked it out of the park, and FoH was super pleasant to talk to. Ambiance was outstanding as always, and food was spectacular.

3 of us went and LOVED it. The shepherds pie is PERFECT! Going back just for that! The lamb stew was OK, more more soup than stew since it had more of a broth base. We had an apple crumble that was completely smothered in cream, so it lost its "crumble", but it tasted good. We had some warm conversation with the the owner's son (I think he said his father opened the place or one in Seattle?). Staff was also super friendly. read more

Food was excellent, service was lacking. Food order was taken by the server and delivered by another employee. We saw the server leave for the day but he never came back to the table after taking the order. We finally had to go to the bar and ask for to-go boxes and the check. read more

Came here last night (Friday) not knowing what to expect.. When we first walked in, we were greeted by the hostess who told us we can pick anywhere we'd like to sit and there was a live guitarist. Sat down at a table then ordered some food and drinks. First off, the live guitarist - Jordan Harris (@jordanceharris) was amazingggg! His guitar playing skills, humor, and voice! #hearteyes. The place wasn't too packed and the audience was awesome. Bartenders seemed to be fun too. We ended up staying here a little longer than planned because he was so good! I wish we had a bar/lounge like this in SF lol. This Irish bar had a good selection of beer. I'm not much of a beer drinker, so I opted for the usual cider (they only had Magners). Service was nice. They also serve food. We ordered the boneless whiskey wings ($10) and Salmon melt. Boneless whiskey wings came with a good amount and they were AMAZING. Definitely recommend it! When Jordan walked by us, he got a whiff on the smell and said it smelled good too! Salmon melt was delicious as well, but it was an open-faced sandwich. Still good. Love this bar. Bomb food, bomb music, and bomb drinks. Definitely coming back next time! read more

Great food, great beers and great people. My favorite spot to watch the game! See you guys again soon.

Such a great place to grab a bite to eat and relax. Great bloody Mary's too. Service can be really great or (at times) non-existent but the atmosphere and food make up for it. read more

Ommcha, Ommcha Ommcha... During our dinner at Kells, the club music filled the beautiful Irish pub while we enjoyed our dinner. I'm not expecting Sinead OConner, U2 or Enya to be playing the entire time. Something more dinner appropriate would be nice. For dinner, we enjoyed the wings and the fish and chips with our brews. The fish and chips is where it's at. WOW. We demolished a large portion. The fish was delicate and delicious. The homemade tartar sauce was some of the best that I've ever had. The chips (fries) were really good too. To drink we had an Irish stout and an IPA. Both pretty solid. Service was extremely attentive and provided clean plates between app and meal. Not a necessity at a pub, but an extremely nice touch. We will definitely be back for those fish and chips! read more

First time at Kell's and I will definitely be back! Service was friendly and fast and food was delicious and arrived quickly. I ordered the wild caught salmon which was delish and perfectly cooked. It was also beautifully plated as Tina, the bartender promised it would be. Mango & guava sour was also yummy. read more

I went to grab a bite to eat. I went to use the bathroom and I tripped over something as it's really dark. Look at the photos others have posted you can't see the floor. So I'm unconscious and the next thing I know I have people grabbing at me, pushing me out of the restaurant and telling me to get up and walk. I'm bleeding. I feel like I don't know what happened. They just are dragging me. I hear the manager say get her out of here put her in an Uber get her out . I'm thinking my car is in the parking lot. Why are you trying to call me an Uber? I was looking for my sun glasses they were on my head & now broken. I can't find the pieces. I'm feeling my mouth it's bleeding a lot. My front tooth is broken. My mouth hurts. I'm bleeding blood coming out of my nose. I'm skinned up. They're being very belligerent to me. Instead of getting me an ambulance they pretty much kick me out charge me for the food I never got. They didn't even give me my parts to my glasses so I can't get them fixed. I had just got there and I wasn't drinking alcohol of any kind before I got there or while I was there so wasn't like I'm at all the way intoxicated. I just wanted to go to the bathroom and eat my food and leave just in and out. But no they were not nice when it was their fault by not keeping the isle clear. What's worst is the rude way to say over and over get her outta here and set me at a table outside. I can't even move I've just been knocked unconscious. Why didn't they get me an ambulance instead of dragging me across the concrete outside just skinned my knee up? That wasn't pleasant of them to do that either. I don't know about you. I just wouldn't support a company that doesn't give a shit about people unless they're taking their money and they took my money didn't give me my food in the I tripped over and they dragged me hurting me worse I wanted to do nothing more than kick me out. I call that very good group of people. I won't ever go back to that place. Let's hope that if you decide to go there you never get harmed never have an emergency. That's why they call them emergencies, but I hope you never have one because I won't call an ambulance. You could be having a heart attack ortrip & fall over something and they won't call 911 they'll throw you in the street and charge your card. They say keep Portland weird.. but I tell you it's not weird. It's just ruthless. I read any other place would've called an ambulance and not just picked her person up and drag him across the concrete outside and stepeatdedly say "get her outta here." Not nice people. What if I was your grandma I'm 58 yrs old. What if ai was your mother or your aunt or your beloved sister? The person you really loved and they just dragged the out of the r restaurant bleeding and disoriented and in pain and all you could hear was get that person out of here. Get him an Uber. And they were being kind about it. They weren't being nice about it. They just wanted me gone. Just wanted to charge my card which they did. They didn't wanna make sure I had my stuff. My glasses were broke they were my sunglasses but they were $300 Maui Jim's one of my favorite pair. They didn't care. They let me bleed on the sidewalk after dragging me while I was just coming to and crying because they are hurting me. It was awful. Choose another place to eat and dine where people care about the customer not just about making a buck. Find a restaurant where you want trip over or whatever it was in the walkway it was very dark so they should make sure to keep the isles clear. So go to place that keeps tiles clear and cares about their patrons not just about making a buck. They didn't give me the food, but they charge before so at the very least they should've given me to go order, but it just really basically ripped me off on top of hurting me.. I hope the owner hears of this and hires a better staff of people. They think they'll never go out of business. I wasn't the right person. they did this too, but if I would've been the head of Nike or some prestigious person they would be dealt with in a legal manner and rest assured it wouldn't happen again. If you do go there buyer beware that you don't innocently walk to the bathroom and the next thing you know is your waking up to being dragged across the concrete feeling pain from the guys dragging you and the scraping of your skin on the sidewalk I had shorts on. Now you're barely awake and you hear 1 guy rudely barking to get you outta here. When you feel you need an ambulances I drove myself to the ER and thank God I was alert enough to do it. Look at the pics others took of inside the pub and you'll see how dark it is. And I went in while it was light outside and they were dragging me out while it was light outside but didn't help me. It was awful. I'm in worse pain because they dragged me. I could give them no stars I would. Eat at another place. You'll be safer. read more

A gem! So many places in Portland to grab a beer, but none quite like this authentic Irish Pub with its low key, warm and friendly, relaxing vibes. The crowd is always just enough and great, and the service is excellent. And while they are famed for their brews (this location being the actual brewery), they also have an excellent selection of irish whiskey and last but not least - amazing food. A short but carefully selected list of appetizers, mains and sandwiches - we've pretty much tried everything here and the food is the biggest triumph calling us back here time and time again. The Reuben, the Mama Mac, the BLTC, the Curry ... And yes, even the burger - all so good! Definitely our favorite spot here in the city! read more

Food was pretty good, but took forever. Our server seemed to be the only person working and talking to an older lady sitting at a table behind us seemed to be more important to her than serving us. Also, right when we arrived, we wanted to sit on the patio because it was nice outside, but I don't think she had any plans of coming to help us. So we moved to the bar. Another guy outside moved inside, as well. There were only three parties in the entire huge place. Beers were eh, food was stuff you could get anywhere. Don't want to go back. read more

Came in for happy hour on a Tuesday. I tried the burger, whiskey boneless wings, and fries. All were delicious, food portions and did not disappoint (wasn't expecting much). The place is pretty nice and spacious so it would be good for a big group! There's plenty of happy hour spots in the area so it's hard to choose! I'd recommend this place if you want reliable bar food to fill your belly. But if you want something that's different or fancy, I'd pass. read more

So we were downtown and found the bigger Kelly's there was closed. So we made the short drive to the uptown location. Parking can be an issue if you are a visitor (park around the corner at Fred Myers). This place is small but has an amazing bar inside and great seating outside. Beers were so good Irish Red Ale amazing. Food off the charts good. They put a lot of effort into the food. I was nervous at first as there was only one person working as hostess and server. She was so attentive and gave us great selections on our meals. We would highly recommend this place. read more

My friend who was visiting from out of town was craving beef stew after being out in the cold rain all day. I wasn't sure where we could go but she found this location and so we decided to check it out. We called in the order while driving in and when we got there we just had a few more minutes to wait. We spoke to the owner who was incredibly nice. The inside of this location was decorated for Christmas and it was so super pretty! I felt like I was in a Hallmark movie. It was well done and not cheesy at all. I ended up ordering the shepherds pie. We took them home to enjoy with beers we already had on hand. Both my friend and I were more than pleased with our orders. I definitely could use that again on a snowy day like today! Additionally if you're looking to eat out, they had a little tent area set up outside so that would be a great spot to check out! I knew this location existed down near the waterfront but had no idea about this other location. I'd definitely come back here! read more

Can't wait to return to Kell's Brewery for a complete meal an grog! Their amber ale is outstanding and will pair perfectly with Bangers or Shepherd's Pie, which they serve both, but I have yet to try. I attended a special event and both hubby and I enjoyed all we tasted. We'll be back! read more

I came at the crack of noon to watch a Champions League game. Was able to teach my last class of the day remotely from my table, while watching the game. Sweet potato fries were yummy and I took some home for later. Gas fire was blazing. Very cozy and welcoming. Highly recommend. Wish they opened earlier for EPL games! read more

we went for an early lunch and was just given a one page menu. had to ask for the main menu. I ordered the bangers with hash browns it was awful as the hash browns came with green peppers and onions and I dislike them both and the menu did say it came that way. very sad. read more

Great fish and fries. Very decent price too. We only stopped for takeout. No regrets . We will be back to try other selections

These guys are a nice mix of neighborhood watering hole, local brewhouse, and full bar. In a city with breweries that have international reputations, these guys aren't the most famous around, but they are very cool. They clearly work the Irish pub theme. Comfy chairs, some old wood and brick showing. They have cool beer signs and big mirrors up; it has that just-cluttered-enough feeling that places get when they want to feel well-worn. These guys might actually be well-worn for all I know; I do know it's comfortable and welcoming in here. There's a brewhouse down at the end, on the other side of a glass wall. Decent-sized system. There's a big wall of whiskies on the left--scotches and bourbons along with Irishes and blends. Full gamut. Staff is nice, prices are fine. The beers are solid and drinkable. This would be a really decent spot to hang out with friends for a session. We didn't watch a game or eat food, but we all felt like we would come back if we just needed a good spot to relax and shoot the breeze. read more

Delicious, authentic Irish food! I highly recommend the corned beef and cabbage! Fun atmosphere too.

What's not to like! Kell is my last name. It was just what you would expect from an Irish pub. Good food, Lager beer was excellent and, Kelly the waitress gave us T's. Bartender Gave us a Beer glass. Playing great music also. (Not live though) Thanks Kells for the Hospitality. We'll be back or, try the Kells pub next next time. read more

It was nice and quiet.... More guys here than females ‍ had the blood orange ale and it was good

We sat at the very impressive bar and enjoyed a beer. I had the Pilsner, which was somewhat different but very good. It tasted mildly nutty -- hazelnut maybe? B had a fresh hop IPA which he pronounced excellent. We didn't eat here, but the menu looks like great pub food. Another time, perhaps. read more

Best Irish Bar in town! It is definitely the spot to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. I highly recommend the Shepherd's Pie. It's so delicious -- smooth mashed potatoes & savory meat filling. You will get your drink & fix here. read more

Came in this afternoon, on a Sunday, and the place was really relaxing. I had a delicious beet salad, and a huge plate of fries that I shared with the table. My colleagues had BLT, shepherds pie, and salmon plate. I had a cider and my colleague had a stout. They have Coca-Cola products, which we were glad for. It was a great location in the middle of a Sunday afternoon. I would highly recommend coming. Lots of table space. Really relaxing environment. And lots of windows so it felt bright and warm. read more
